Club Night 3rd December 2019

A great end to a super year of music. Our last event of the year was our Club Night on Tuesday, 3rd December 2019. This was the first time we have used the Club Rooms since they have been refurbished with new carpets, wall seats and fresh painting. A near full house attended including lots of visitors! Arrival music was kindly provided by Jim Nicholson on the Clavinova. We were then treated by 13 year old Hana Tani who played a Christmas medley as well as a superb rendering of Chopin's Fantaisie-Impromptu. Next up, Warren Levick, played the Clavinova using the rhythm features of the instrument. At the end of the first set, we held the Christmas Hamper Raffle. We had 11 buckets on offer as a result of the kind donations of our members and the hard work of our Secretary, Delyse Whorwood, who coordinated the Hampers collection and presentation over the last 3 months. For our refreshments break, Our Catering Manager, Karen Steen, setup a great supper with mince pies and chocolate biscuits. In the second set we were entertained by Jan and Kevin Johnston who came down from Algies Bay to play for us. Jan and Kevin had a theme of Latin songs which we thoroughly enjoyed. At the end of the evening our MC and President, Gordon Sutherland, wished everybody a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year.
